• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRMA_FI306 - No fiscal year has been transferred ?

  The SAP error message WRMA_FI306: No fiscal year has been transferred typically occurs in the context of year-end closing activities or financial postings where the system expects fiscal year data to be available or transferred but it is not.
  
  Cause
  
  The error indicates that the fiscal year data for the relevant company code or ledger has not been transferred or updated in the system.
  This usually happens when the new fiscal year has not been created or opened in the system.
  It can also occur if the year-end closing process has not been completed, or the fiscal year variant has not been maintained properly.
  Sometimes, the error arises during posting or reporting when the system tries to access fiscal year data that does not exist or is not yet activated.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Fiscal Year Variant:
  
  Go to transaction OB29 and verify that the fiscal year variant assigned to the company code includes the new fiscal year.
  Ensure that the fiscal year variant is correctly maintained and covers the periods you are trying to post or report on.
  
  
  
  Create/Open New Fiscal Year:
  
  Use transaction OB52 to open posting periods for the new fiscal year.
  Make sure the posting periods for the new fiscal year are open for the relevant company code and account types.
  
  
  
  Complete Year-End Closing:
  
  Ensure that the year-end closing activities have been completed properly.
  This includes carrying forward balances, closing previous fiscal year periods, and transferring data as required.
  
  
  
  Transfer Fiscal Year Data:
  
  In some cases, you may need to run specific programs or reports to transfer fiscal year data.
  For example, in asset accounting or controlling, you might need to run year-end closing programs to transfer balances to the new fiscal year.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing Settings:
  
  Verify in SPRO under Financial Accounting settings that the fiscal year and posting periods are correctly configured.
  Ensure that the company code is assigned to the correct fiscal year variant.
  
  
  
  Re-run the Process:
  
  After ensuring the fiscal year is created and open, re-run the transaction or process that triggered the error.
